PSGE THREE
BADLY BEATEN IN
LONDON ELECTION
LONDON', Nov. 2. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) Stunned by the heavy
downfall of their candidates In the
municipal elections throughout Eng
land yesterday the laborites Intensi
fied their political campaign today
with the hope of muking a better
showing in the general election for
parliament for November 14. In yes
terday's balloting the laborites lost
149 seats' which they had previously
held in London and about 160 seats
which they had occupied In 80 bor
oughs outside the capital, for the
most part In such large cities as Man
chester, Liverpool, Birmingham,
Derby, Nottingham, Plymouth,
Southampton and Portsmouth.
The outcome of the local elections
has made labor's prospects for par
liament very discouraging. In some
instances laborlte representation was
completely wiped out in the munici
pal elections but at other polls labor
held Its own and even made a few
Barms. London was intensely hostile
to labor.
The Illness of Lloyd George at
tracts much attention. His cold and
throat trouble is said by some to
really be a symptom of run down
health duo to fatigue. Lord llirfc
enhead . will substitute for Lloyd
George as the speaker before a politi
cal gathering at Bristol, tonight.

E
ASTORIA, Ore., Nov. 2. Practically
all salmon canneries on the lower Co
lumbia river suspended operations
yesterday. One company has announc
ed that It will continue to receive
salmon after November 1 for an indef
inite limit, to be governed by the sup
ply and the condition of the market.
The fall season this year has been
better than usual owing to the largo
number of silversides and the good
quality of the fish. Another factor
contributing to the success of the fall
season has been the mild weather
which has prevailed off the river
mouth.
About fourteen canneries operated
during the season.

The Exposition Means
Immediate State Development
YOU ARE ASKED to vote November 7 on a constitutional amendment authorizing the city of
Portland to levy within the city a tax of one million dollars a year for three years to finance
the proposed 1927 Exposition.
. There is evidence that plans and purposes of the 1927 Exposition are not fully under
stood and this message is being published to give a more complete understanding and to gain state
wide approval of .the Exposition plans.
J It should first of all be made plain that the proposed three million dollar tax to be levied in Port
land is contingent upon the raising of a fund of one million dollars by private subscription the
men who are pioneering the building of the Exposition showing their own faith in a material way.
, I The one purpose of the Exposition is the development of Oregon and Oregon resources.
1 Oregon, twice the size of the state of New York and one of the richest sections of the world in '
natural resources, has less than a million population instead of the four or five millions which the
state can easily support and which in turn would contribute to the support of the state.
I Oregon has fewer people than the city of Los Angeles.
I Oregon has only eight people to the square mile. California has 22 and Washington 20.
, & Oregon is burdened with taxes' and the one sure relief to the individual taxpayer is more people to
develop more wealth to share the tax burden.
Q Vast areas of Oregon soil, as fertile as the world contains, are untouched by the plow because'the
people of the world do not know of their fertility and opportunity.
' 2 But these are facts we all know.
V !.!-' ' 9 We are all agreed as to the need of development in Oregon ; now let us see what the, 1927 Exposi
tion can mean in bringing about that development: '
$ It is proposed that the 1927 Exposition shall be the central feature of a ten-year development plan
for the state. ' y
q The first essential of this plan is that the people of the East who can better their own conditions by
coming to Oregon be made to know what Oregon can of fer.
ffjlt is planned, if the Exposition measure is approved at the polls, to begin, not later than 1924, a
campaign of advertising which shall cover all the rich states to the east of us. This advertising is
to appeal to farmers, stockmen, orchardists, manufacturers and tourists, telling each of these classes
of the opportunities which Oregon offers them and inviting them to come and see for themselves. All
this advertising will lead up to the 1927 Exposition, but it will be intended to attract not alone sight- " '
seers but settlers and investors even before the Exposition.
I It is planned also to continue this development programme after the Exposition is ended and until
1934.
J It is proposed that the Exposition shall strongly feature the products and resources of Oregon, so
that visitors will become interested in the state as a place for them to live and prosper.
Q Each section of the state will be given an opportunity to benefit both by the preliminary adver,
tising and by the Exposition itself. .
J Railways will be asked to sell excursion tickets to the Exposition, which' shall give the holder
without extra cost a trip to other sections of the state which they may desire to visit.
I Each county in the state will be invited to participate in a carefully worked-out plan "to direct attend
tion to and create interest in all sections of the state. i
I Those who sponsor the Exposition believe that these plans will insure a speedy and definite develV
opment of Oregon's vast resources by bringing together the entire energies of the state and by
focusing attention upon the state. '
q The welfare of every man, woman and child in Oregon is directly connected with state "develop
ment. Adequate state development means increased prosperity, a better social condition, better,
markets, more comforts and conveniences, with reduced taxation.
J In the present condition of the United States and of the world at large, Oregon's state development
Wl11 n.ot comc speedily unless well thought-out and aggressive plans are put into execution. ,
? The 1927 Exposition as the concentration point of a ten-year development plan is a definite,
tangible movement for state-wide progress, and on this basis you can confidently give your approval ,
to the Exposition measures to be voted on at the polls November 7. . .1
; Why the Exposition Has Been Set Forward From 1925 to 1927
: The change of date from 1925 lo 1927 has been made because it has been found im.
v ' - possible lo build an adequate Exposition and to co-ordinate all its, features in a general
plan for Oregon development in the little more than two years between now and 1925,
